In this study, an integrated system comprised of zero-valent iron (ZVI) reduction and ZVI-based Fenton oxidation processes (ZVI-ZVI/H2O2) was applied for the selective removal of nitroaromatic compounds (NACs) from 2,4-dinitroanisole (DNAN) producing wastewater. For the ZVI reduction process, at a hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 6 h and neutral pH of 7.2, removal efficiencies of 2,4-dinitroanisole (DNAN), 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) and 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB) were as high as 81.3 ± 3.6%, 80.6 ± 1.8% and 90.9 ± 3.5%, respectively, demonstrating the excellent performance of ZVI. For the ZVI/H2O2 oxidation process, the optimal pH and H2O2 dosage were found to be 3.0 and 100 mmol L-1, respectively. Under these optimal conditions, NACs and their degradation intermediates could be removed selectively and effectively in the coupled ZVI reduction and ZVI/H2O2 oxidation process, as was indicated by the low UV254 value of 0.104 ± 0.003 and the low TOC removal efficiency of 32.4 ± 0.7% in the effluent. Ferrous ions could be generated in situ through the corrosion of the metal iron in both the ZVI reduction process and the ZVI/H2O2 oxidation process, giving rise to a potent Fenton-type reaction. In addition, the enhanced Fenton reaction with the aid of reaction between Fe0 and Fe3+ was probably due to the presence of Fe0 in the ZVI/H2O2 oxidation process, which promoted the utilization efficiency of the Fenton catalyst, i.e., Fe2+. Compared to the sequential ZVI reduction and homogeneous Fenton oxidation process (ZVI-Fe2+/H2O2), the low consumption of iron shavings, the reduced H2O2 consumption and the low yield of ferric sludge made the integrated ZVI-ZVI/H2O2 process promising for the treatment of NAC containing wastewater.

Nowadays one of the great challenges is to design new bimetallic catalysts with enhanced catalytic activity, selectivity and recycling properties. In this work, the preparation of new Co/Cu bimetallic Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework (Co-Cu/ZIF) as an efficient catalyst for the reduction of nitro compounds and organic dyes is described. Co-Cu/ZIF was characterized with different techniques such as SEM, TEM, XRD, XPS, TGA, FT-IR and UV–vis absorption indicating formation of entirely uniform cubic particles. Using this catalyst, structurally different aromatic nitro compounds were reduced efficiently to corresponding amines in excellent yields. Kinetic studies revealed that the reduction rates of nitrophenol isomers follow 3-NP > 4-NP > 2-NP order. The catalytic activity of Co-Cu/ZIF was further investigated in the reduction of organic dyes such as methyl orange (MO) and rhodamine B (RhB). This catalyst was recycled for at least ten runs in the reduction of 4-nitrophenol without a noticeable decrease in activity and reused catalyst was characterized.

In this work, a series of metal–organic framework (MOF)-derived CoPd nanoalloys have been prepared. The nanocatalysts exhibited excellent activities in the hydrogenation of nitroarenes and alkenes in green solvent (ethanol/water) under mild conditions (H2 balloon, room temperature). Using ZIF-67 as template for both carbon matrix and cobalt precursor coating with a mesoporous SiO2 layer, the catalyst CoPd/NC@SiO2 was smoothly constructed. Catalytic results revealed a synergistic effect between Co and Pd components in the hydrogenation process due to the enhanced electron density. The mesoporous SiO2 shell effectively prevented the sintering of hollow carbon and metal NPs at high temperature, furnishing the well-dispersed nanoalloy catalysts and better catalytic performance. Moreover, the catalyst was durable and showed negligible activity decay in recycling and scale-up experiments, providing a mild and highly efficient way to access amines and arenes.

In order to synthesize highly sparse nanoparticles, UiO-66-NH2 can be utilized as an appropriate support. It has great surface area, which is functionalized by 1,3-bis(dimethylthiocarbamoyloxy)benzene compounds that can act as the powerful performers, hence, the Pd (II) is a complex without aggregate over the UiO-66-NH2 microspheres structures (UiO-66/btb/Pd). Nitro-aromatic pollution in industrial waste streams threat wellbeing of water resources. The produced UiO-66/btb/Pd nanocatalyst showed appropriate catalytic activity for reduce nitro-aromatic compounds in aqueous solution. XRD, EDS, SEM, FT-IR, and TEM were utilized for characterizing the nanostructures UiO-66/btb/Pd.

A new, versatile, and green methodology has been developed for the efficient NaBH4-reduction of nitroarenes as well as the domino/reduction MCR preparation of 1-substituted-1H-1,2,3,4-tetrazoles using Pd(ii)-polysalophen coated magnetite NPs as an efficient heterogeneous magnetically recyclable nanocatalyst. Polysalophen was firstly prepared based on a triazine framework with a high degree of polymerization, then coordinated to Pd ions and, finally, the resulting hybrid was immobilized on magnetite NPs. The catalyst was characterized by various instrumental and analytical methods, including GPC, DLS, N2adsorption-desorption, TGA, VSM, TEM, HRTEM, EDX, XPS, XRD, and ICP analyses. The catalyst possesses dual-functionality including the reduction of nitroarenes and the construction of tetrazole rings all in one stepviaa domino protocol. High to excellent yields were obtained for both nitro reduction and the direct preparation of 1-substituted-1H-1,2,3,4-tetrazoles from nitro compounds. Insight into the mechanism was conducted by XPSin situas well as DLSin situalong with several control experiments. Recyclability of the catalyst was studied for 6 consecutive runs along with metal leaching measurements in each cycle.

Transition metal catalysis that utilizes N-heterocyclic carbenes as noninnocent ligands in promoting transformations has not been well studied. We report here a cyclic (alkyl)(amino)carbene (CAAC) ligand-promoted nitro deoxygenative hydroboration with cost-effective chromium catalysis. Using 1 mol % of CAAC-Cr precatalyst, the addition of HBpin to nitro scaffolds leads to deoxygenation, allowing for the retention of various reducible functionalities and the compatibility of sensitive groups toward hydroboration, thereby providing a mild, chemoselective, and facile strategy to form anilines, as well as heteroaryl and aliphatic amine derivatives, with broad scope and particularly high turnover numbers (up to 1.8 × 106). Mechanistic studies, based on theoretical calculations, indicate that the CAAC ligand plays an important role in promoting polarity reversal of hydride of HBpin; it serves as an H-shuttle to facilitate deoxygenative hydroboration. The preparation of several commercially available pharmaceuticals by means of this strategy highlights its potential application in medicinal chemistry.

Abstract: Nitro-aromatic pollution in industrial waste streams threat wellbeing of water resources. This study investigates the performance of a copper-based nano catalyst to reduce nitro-aromatic compounds in aqueous solution. Anchoring Cu NPs within the nano spaces of a fibrous silicate with high surface area, and simple accessibility of active sites were successfully established by a facile approach to produce a novel nanocatalyst (DFNS/PEI/Cu). DFNS displayed different properties such as dandelion-like shape, high surface area, and simple availability of active sites. Immobilization of the Cu NPs on DFNS nanospheres not only prevented their aggregation, but also considerably improved the availability of the catalytic active sites. The DFNS/PEI/Cu nanocatalyst demonstrated great catalytic activities for the reduction of nitro compounds under green conditions. Our findings show fibrous DFNS and Cu NPs as a helpful platform for the fabrication of noble metal-based affordable nanocatalyst for many catalytic applications.

In this work, Pd NPs supported on amine-modified natural hematite have been prepared and characterized. Using this simple catalyst, nitroaromatic compounds as a major cause of industrial pollution were reduced to corresponding amines with ppm levels of Pd in the presence of designer surfactant TPGS-750-M and NaBH4 at room temperature in aqueous media. Synergistic effect between hematite and Pd is responsible for the observed enhanced catalytic activity. This catalyst was recycled for at least four times with a small decrease in the activity.

A new heterogeneous catalyst was synthesized by immobilizing Pd on areca nut kernel-derived carbon nanospheres (CNSs). The CNSs, without any further activation processes, accommodated 3% of Pd on their surface. The new Pd/CNS material was used for the reduction of nitroarenes and Suzuki–Miyaura coupling of bromoarenes with aryl boronic acids. The reactions were conducted under microwave irradiation at 160 °C using 12 mol% of Pd/CNS (0.36% actual Pd content). The reduction of nitroarenes into their respective amino compounds was achieved in 10–20 min (conversion up to 100%); by contrast, the Suzuki–Miyaura reactions yielded up to 98% at 150 °C with 10 mol% of Pd/CNS catalyst. The products were identified using gas chromatography and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The catalyst was isolated from reaction mixture and reused without any significant loss in the activity. Thus, the present work introduces one-pot-derived porous CNSs as efficient catalytic support to Pd, establishing an alternative to existing Pd/C in terms of cost and efficiency.

A highly chemoselective and recyclable ruthenium catalyst for the hydrogenation of halogenated nitroarenes has been prepared via the simple in situ calcination of a mixture of melamine, glucose and ruthenium trichloride. Superfine Ru particles (2.3 ± 0.3 nm) were obtained and highly dispersed in the nitrogen-doped carbon matrix. The Ru/CN catalyst smoothly transforms a variety of halogenated nitroarenes to the corresponding haloanilines with high intrinsic activity (e.g. TOF = 1333 h-1 for p-chloronitrobenzene) and selectivity of more than 99.6percent. Furthermore, through an analysis of the products in the reaction process, it was concluded that there are two parallel reaction pathways (a direct pathway and an indirect pathway) for the hydrogenation of aromatic nitro compounds over the Ru/CN catalyst, and the direct pathway was proved to be dominant in catalyzing the intermediates.
